WOKE bait & switch. Avoid.

Those are the rumours coming from a commentator with a good track record, and the new trailer confirms his earlier plot leak video.

Wanna hear how they’ve gone woke? Read on…

It all leads up to Trinity becoming The One. Yep. Apparently she shares her power with him at the end and the two of them fly toward the camera (hey, that’s better than her lecturing him on the patriarchy then flying off alone but still, Neo is cucked for most of the film and the power resides within her)

I also think it’s absurd that Neo and Trinity are still alive, especially Trin after her moving death scene in Revolutions - this cheapens all that for an obvious cashgrab. Neo’s ‘resurrection’ you can kinda forgive because he wasn’t 100% human and there was all that ‘we’ll see Neo again’ blather at the end.

I got most of this info here: https://youtu.be/kgjhPczl4o0

So yeah, I’ll be steering well clear of this unless I hear information to the contrary after release but with Lilly (Andy) Wachowski, a transsexual, saying The Matrix was always a ‘trans metaphor’ I think we can rest assured his brother, also a transsexual, has made a Woke af film.

If the very ending appears to pull back on the Woke, don’t be fooled - it’ll be another bait & switch to make sure you watch the sequel.

Oh, stfu. The Wachowskis were already 'woke' before it was thing, before people were talking about it. bfd, get a life.

Wokists always want to silence any talk of woke, the same way the Nazis tried to silence any mention of the Holocaust - so that they can continue uninterrupted.

Nice try but… fail.

looks like you were right, but I think we all knew it would be woke somehow...

[–] Drooch (5333) 3 years ago

Well, looks like the rumours were true.

I’ll be avoiding this, and the only way I’ll watch it out of curiosity is without paying for it.

They went woke, now they must go broke.

The Drooch is always right.

[–] Drooch (5333) 2 years ago

I wish it weren’t so 😞

For the record, Trinity isn’t “The One.” The movie establishes that she and Neo share a special connection that makes them powerful, and that they both need each other. The movie never suggests that Trinity is better than Neo, and he’s still the main character.

Bingo lol. You get it! And this is consistent with what the Analyst said he was doing; he based the new matrix specifically on their connection/relationship. It's like their love/struggle/pain/tragedy was the model by which to create the motivational treadmill for the new matrix denizens.

Lol trying to argue semantics of the rumour to pretend it wasn't completely accurate 🤦‍♂️.

[–] acidraindrop (3055) 2 years ago

It's not semantics when that's literally the only thing that the rumor is saying. And it's incorrect. The power doesn't reside inside her alone.

[–] triplea (3577) 2 years ago

Not anymore since any future movies are cancelled due to how much this one sucked haha

[–] triplea (3577) 2 years ago

Actually this was spot on.

[–] TylerAArse (2723) 2 years ago

How does Trinity becoming The One make it "woke".

[–] Drooch (5333) 2 years ago

Disempowerment of the male.

[–] Marty1968 (303) 2 years ago

And she wasn’t The One you retarded Khunt

[–] RealInfinitum (424) 2 years ago

OMG does the rightist politically correct propaganda machine ever rest? So now Matrix is "woke"? So they are going to cancel that next?

Oh right Keanu is part Hawaiian. OMG! Hawaiians are going to take over white people jobs next! Everyone run about run about!

[–] Drooch (5333) 2 years ago

Now actually read the OP and make a relevant comment.

[–] kuatorises (7467) 2 years ago

She's "The One" (which wasn't true), but shares her power with him? Sooooo... she's not the one then? Are you idiots so eager to look for woke bullshit you just make crap up? This movie sucked, but it wasn't "woke" at all.
